Working in a kitchen many years ago I scalded half my hand in an oven. The skin got stuck to the oven and my hand was badly burned. The chef said he had seen many burns like that and that for sure I would have a permanent scar. I was adviced to put my hand in cold water, which helped while it was in it but hurt once out. A friend of mine gave me a gauze soaked in her Tea tree liquid and bandaged it. She told me not to get it wet and the next day she redressed it with more tea tree. I also did not get it wet and while showering put a plastic bag around my hand and kept it dry. After a week I took the bandage off and it had healed in an extraoridinary meassure. Even the Chef was very impressed. I have no scar left and the Tea tree has been used in that kitchen to heal burns ever since. I recommend you try it anyway. It can only help. Good Luck!
